Incarnated
Old Secrets

As the guests rested, Someone entered Lu Xiang's room, he came in thick clothes.

" I'm going to go out" said the person, Lu Xiang nodded, because Lu Xiang knew where he was going tonight.

As soon as that person left Lu Xiang whistled, then two people came inside, two people in black came and saluted Lu Xiang.

" Go to the grave of General Jiang Feng, accompany the princess, do not let others see her, but remember do not approach her sufficiently guard it from a distance, if you disturb her I cannot guarantee the safety of your lives, maybe tonight he will torture himself." said Lu Xiang, the two men nodded in understanding, after they saluted them immediately left.

There was something Lu Xiang had to do tonight, he had not heard from Zhang Luhan and Zhang Ruyue so he sent secret letters through the pigeons to tell them to come.

Lu Xiang changed clothes, he then came to Jiang Huan's room and left something there, he died a letter to Jiang, after he finished his residence waiting for Jiang to come to see him to negotiate.

Jiang Huan went into his room, today he did not see Lian and Yuan, his two loyal servants. Jiang continued to call the two but nothing, then another servant came to pay his respects to Jiang Huan.

" Servant, where are Lian and Yuan?" jiang Huan asked, as he needed the two of them to prepare his bath.

" Your Majesty, they both fell ill and were being treated at the butler's house" replied the Servant, Jiang Huan nodded in understanding then told the maid to leave. Jiang went into his room, as he wanted to undress he saw a letter on the table near the guide.

" The lives of your two servants are only until tomorrow, if you want their lives, meet me." Jiang took a look at the letter, knowing who sent it, he went to the servant's house to see how Lian and Yuan were doing.

" Lian, Yuan. "call Jiang, Lian and Yuan who are lying down want to get up to salute Jiang but soon Jiang put up a hold.

" Miss." replied Lian weakly, her lips blue from poison.

" As if Lu Xiang knew me so well, he poisoned others with so many different poisons that it was unpredictable, it was difficult for me to make an antidote, she said, their poison takes time to make but their lives are only until tomorrow, will I always lose against Lu Xiang's poison?" inner Jiang, he clasped the hands of Lian and Yuan who already felt cold.

" I'll save you, wait" said Jiang, then he left from there to head for Lu Xiang's residence.

this time a came without hiding anymore, a servant told Lu Xiang that Jiang Huan wanted to meet, upon hearing the news, Lu Xiang smiled happily.

" Send him in." Lu Xiang replied to the servant who delivered the message. Lu Xiang smiled when he saw Jiang Huan's arrival.

" Give me Lu Xiang's antidote" Jiang said firmly, Lu Xiang immediately laughed out loud.

" Patience little Jiang, they're not dead yet, I want you to do something for me."Jiang raised his eyebrows looking at Lu Xiang.

" You have to lose the match tomorrow, the title of Empress must belong to Ming Hui" she continued.

" What are you planning Lu Xiang to do." shouted Jiang angrily. Lu Xiang smiled Slyly.

" What am I planning? you know that." Lu Xiang replied, Jiang clenched his hand.

" Even if I don't become Empress anymore, I won't let you hurt her, I will protect her" Jiang said.

" I hope you hold your word because if you don't, I'll kill you" he continued, leaving behind a smiling Lu Xiang.

" I'm sorry Jiang Feng, for my revenge you're a victim, it's okay, today I came to drink together, we haven't done it in a long time, have we?" Lu Xiang opened the lid of the wine jug and drank it, he could not drink so he only brought two jugs.

While crying, Bai Qian continued to drink the wine up to one jug and he was already heavily drunk, he was going to let out all his heart.

" Jiang Feng, I lied to myself if I said I didn't love you, even today the feeling is still the same, but I can't just let go of my grudge, I can't accept your love because I have no way back."

" You know, the last time we met and you still remember me and gave me a painting, it felt like I felt like I was the happiest woman to have you, but I also realized who I was, a bad woman like myself doesn't deserve a good man like you. Jiang Feng, you know all about me and my purpose but you keep protecting me, I promise the sacrifices you have made for me will not be in vain." Bai Qian sometimes laughed sometimes crying, while talking he was already very drunk, staying half a jug again the direction he drank.

" I will immediately eliminate Zhang Han and destroy the Qing kingdom, I always remember all our memories together, I love you but you won't stand with me to face Zhang Han, you'd rather support him.You destroyed half of my plan and depleted my army, then how could I not kill you? even if you didn't tell Zhang Han but you helped him, I can't let you continue to destroy the efforts I've built over the years." Bai Qian cried, he then lay in Jiang Feng's grave, hugging the tombstone.

" While I am the cause of your death, why am I not happy? I feel a tremendous pain in my heart Jiang Feng, why are you doing this to me? why did you make me fall in love with you until I was helpless like this? why?.. Why should I feel this pain? why?...why should I cry over your death? I should have had a party but why should I end up here now." cried Bai Qian, he then stood staggering.

" Why?.." he cried again, he cried incessantly, he then lay back hugging the gravestone and grasping the grave ground. " Jiang Feng, I always love you." he instantly fell asleep and the two jugs of that direction ran out.

Jiang Huan returned to his residence, in front of the door he met Dao-Dao who had been waiting for him. " Dao-Dao" Jiang said while in front of Dao-Dao.

"Jiang" said Dao-Dao. " I want to tell you something" said Dao-Dao, holding the painting in his hand.

" Let's have a chat inside." Jiang took them in together, they entered the living room, Jiang watched something, after feeling safe, immediately closed the door.

" Do you have any information?" jiang asked impatiently, Dao-Dao nodded.he then unrolled the map, then brought the painting closer to the fire and a female painting appeared, Jiang watched closely.

" Consort Bai Qian." said that coming out of Jiang's mouth, he could not believe seeing the painting behind the map that his brother always carried everywhere.

" What is my brother's relationship with concubine Bai Qian?" asked Jiang Huan.

" I heard that your brother once had a romantic relationship with concubine Bai Qian, but what was even more surprising was that he was the adopted son of the Bai family, he was a marriage alliance for His Majesty's supporters for a family that had influence in the kingdom. I heard that he is the only descendant of the Shen clan who survived the family's destruction because they were considered unlucky." explained Dao-Dao.

" Bring up shit? meaning?"

" The Shen Clan was a clan that could read astrology and see one's fate and the prosperity of the kingdom from the handlines and constellations, he said, at that time the previous king wanted to be predicted but they told him that the king would be killed, he was so angry to hear that he destroyed the clan. I guess concubine Bai Qian was the only survivor of the tragedy."

" What does this have to do with my brother? it was obvious that my brother loved concubine Bai Qian so much, what exactly happened? did Bai Qian also take fair share in Lu Xiang's plan?" Jiang connected this puzzle.

Bai Qian famously never had any problems with anyone could even say he never left his residence unless called Zhang Han, during this time Jiang heard that Bai Qian was a reclusive person and he only knew that Bai Qian knew the science of astronomy to monitor nature, besides that he had never heard or seen Bai Qian do anything and also he had never spoken directly to Bai Qian.

" This being Dao-Dao's conundrum, thanks to you for helping me, you should always be careful of Dao-Dao they are crafty people" Jiang said, Dao-Dao nodded then left Jiang, leaving, Jiang looked at the painting which slowly disappeared the painting's image.

" Bai Qian." Jiang muttered and then rolled up the painting, he would investigate it later.
